Re: is she a pure breed akita help

From that photo I'd say no, her snout looks too long & her head isn't wide enough but could just be the camera angle

This is my 9 yr old Akita

Re: is she a pure breed akita help

From the photo, I'd suggest she might be a Husky/Akita cross. She looks a bit too "leggy" for an Akita. A better photo - maybe of her standing looking at the camera might give us more clues.

Re: is she a pure breed akita help

She has the right sort of coat and colour , but as said befor she has too long a snout and the head is too slim , Maybe a husky or even a Malamute cross as Mals are that bit taller this would maybe be where her height comes from , nice looking dog though , Im assuming you'l have no papers for her and as such she would not be of any use being a cross breed for breeding purposses . Also You will need to think of the moral side of breeding an already possible cross any litter would not be pedigree and you could not redgister them as such . My advice would be to have her as a pet only , of course this is only my opinion there are enough dogs that are in shelters for people to re home due to people breeding for money and irresposable practices , crossing any 2 dogs that take thier fancy . Breeding is hard work and costly and time consumming . Hope this helps .

Re: is she a pure breed akita help

ive seen lots of akita and they can vary quiet alot in shape and colour but i think yours is a cross (still beautiful tho), the snout is very long, this is our akita she is not a year old in these pictures
